General Information

Consideration for Other Visitors

• Respect the 5km/hr. speed limit in place for everyone's safety, especially the many children walking or playing on site

• NO GENERATORS are allowed on site due to noise and incompatibility with the park environment

• Liquor consumption is allowed only at your campsite and prohibited elsewhere
• Barbecues must be used on the ground at your campsite unless barbecue attachments are provided on picnic tables

Consideration of Wildlife and Nature

• The Kootenay Boundary region including our parks are home to a variety of wildlife including bears. Never feed or approach bears!
• To avoid potential problems with bears, lock your food in your vehicle at night, be sure to use the garbage containers provided and maintain a clean campsite.
• If you don't have a vehicle with you, talk to the park attendant about how to camp safely in bear country.
• Trees and shrubs are easily damaged; do not use them for wiener sticks or roasting marshmallows and leave all flowers and plants to grow.

Campfires

Campfires are dependant on current fire restrictions, click here for up-to-date information. Leaving your campfire unattended is a serious offence. Firewood is provided at a cost of $5 per bundle. Firewood can be purchased from the Park Facility Operator. You may also bring your own wood. 

Please don't gather firewood from the area around your campsite or elsewhere in the park. Dead wood is an important habitat element for many plants and animals; it adds organic matter to the soil.

You can conserve firewood and help improve air quality by keeping your campfire small. Limited burning hours or campfire bans may be imposed. Be prepared to bring a portable stove for cooking, or charcoal briquettes in a hibachi may also be used. 

Pets

Pets must be on a leash at all times and are not allowed in the kitchen area. You are responsible for their behavior and must pick up and dispose of their excrement.

Vehicles and Roadways

Parking is permitted only in designated areas and on the gravel portion of campsites. Parking is not permitted on roadsides.
Bicycles may only be ridden on park roads and on designated trails. Vehicles used in parks must be licensed and operated by licensed drivers.
